Easy Homemade Salsa Verde.
You'll love this super flavorful green salsa. It's absolutely delicious!
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds tomatillos
- 1 shallot
- 4 garlic cloves
- 3 serrano peppers
- ⅓ cup cilantro leaves
- 1 ½ Tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Place the oven on low broil.
- Remove the husks from the tomatillos, and rinse under warm water to remove the sticky coating. Trim off the tops, and place on a foil lined baking sheet.
- Add the whole serrano peppers and the garlic cloves in their skins to the baking sheet.
- Broil for about 10 minutes, until the skins on the tomatillos start to blacken. Stay near the oven, as all ovens are different, and you don't want to burn anything.
- Allow the vegetables to cool on the pan.
- Using gloves, remove the stem and seeds from the peppers. Remove the skins from the garlic as well.
- Place all the roasted vegetables along with the peeled shallot, fresh cilantro leaves, lime juice, and salt in a food processor. Process on high until relatively smooth.
- Add more salt or lime juice if needed.
- Enjoy with chips or on tacos or burritos!
Notes
Store leftover salsa in the refrigerator for up to five days.
